Patriot Joe Mcdonald of Indiana has
spoken to the Kentucky Democrats, and
he explained that though he did not like
the law for civil service reform, he could
not blame Mr. Cleveland for trying hon
estly to carry it out But the act says
that the President is authorized TO
appoint a Civil Service Commission and
not that he is required so to do. The sun
in pointing out this fact refers to the Ian
guage of the act for the inter State Com
mission, but says that the Commission is
hereby created"

A MONUMENT TO NATHAN HALE.
Recently Erected In the City of Hart
ford. Conn.

~ only regret that have but one life TO
give 10 my country Such were the words
Of Capt Nathan Hale, whose monument has
lately been set up at Hartford, Conn. His
fame, like that Of Col Elmer Ellsworth, Of
the late war, is secure for all time because he
was the first among the noted martyrs Of his
time. Nathan Hale was but II years old
when be became a captain in the patriot
army, yet he had already graduated from
Yale college and won some distinction as a
scholar and was at the time Of his death be
trothed to lovely young woman. All these
advantages, with his young life so full OF
promise, he voluntarily risked by consenting
70 enter the British lines in search Of infOrma-
ton. On Sept. 81, l776, be was making ready
In Brooklyn TO take the boat for Norwalk 20
reach the American lines, when he was
arrested as a spy; he was tried and con-
demned as spy that night, and the next
morning was executed at or near the present
intersection Of East Broadway and Market
street OF course, the artist does not present
the shameful scene Of his death as "A spy; the
monument represents him when declaring his
last sentiments-erect with face slightly
turned upward and hands thrown back, ex-
pressing at once triumph and resignation.

Sandwich Island loyalty is suspected of

Mr.. Carter, Hawaiian Minister at

take Mr.. Carter with a grain of salt. OF

John Sherman's plan for separate cleo
lions for members of Congress with reg
ulations under the Federal Government
to protect the alleged bulldozed citizens
at the polls, could result in nothing else
but bayonet rule at these elections.
The excuse is that Congress may alter
the time appointed by the State for such
elections.
This is beautiful vision Of the Ito
plan rule for which Republican ideas are
so suited all Of which means in nut
shell, "the party is the Government
and the whole political element a ma
chine, and all the Republican onicehold-
ers are bosses and deputy bosses, the
voters only the pawns in the game

Queen Victoria Is only five feet high.
There are ZIG precious stones Of all sizes
in Queen Nictorias crown, worth $4,000
At Nine Toussaud's exhibition in London
are Queen Victoras first doll, first shoes,
first gloves, besides a withered, dried and o.

The two copies Of the Bible used at Queen
Victoria's coronation are still IN existence.
One is an heirloom in the family OF the late
DR.. Summer, Bishop Of Winchester, and the
other preserved in the cathedral Of Norwich.
Among curious suggestions made for the
celebration Of the Queens jubilee is the pro
posal that precisely at noon on June q private
individuals should play on pianos or other in
struments, God Save the Queen" and that
all the bands Of the kingdom should publicly
produce the national anthem.

cheers and speeches greeted the party al tho

them when the Journey was ended.
The scenery along this railroad IS some.

The weakness Of Republican leaders

The weakness of Republican leaders
like Blaine, Sherman, and General Fair
child, is that they cannot afford to admit
that the war is over. They have no polit-
cal capital except sectional animosity,
and they make the most of it with skill
and dexterity. When there is nothing
left on the national hearthstone, except a
few dying embers of the old feeling, they
grow red in the face in the attempt to fan
the blaze back ~ T. Herald.
